What the Oregon Ducks are Giving up for Lent
My friends … Kim Hastings was the humor writer at FishDuck.com for over four years, as every Saturday morning it was fun to check the site and have some laughs over a good cup of java. I really miss his humor, and as favor to me–he came back to offer some fun to brighten your day too. Charles Fischer My …
Fare Thee Well
Well, it looks like FishDuck.com is going away, at least in its current high content, fast moving iteration. That being the case I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you and farewell to all who have made this journey so enjoyable. To the schools at whose expense I have plowed the most fertile ground. Then to the FishDuck folks themselves. …
Ducks Travel to East Lansing Asking, “Where?”
The Oregon Ducks got the kinks out offensively last week against Eastern Washington (and played defense somewhat offensively at the same time, but we’re not going there today) in preparation for the meatier part of the schedule. This week, the Michigan State Spartans host the Mightys at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing, Michigan. FishDuck.com sent their crack staff (me and an …
Confession is Good for the Duck
Bless me Fish, for I have sinned. It’s been forever since my last confession, but I have to get a few things off my chest. My soul is weary with the pain and weight of iniquity.

My Wife’s Birthday Got Me to Thinking …
Thursday was my wife’s birthday (“Happy birthday, honey. Sorry about, well, you know.”) It being her special day, I just wanted to take this opportunity to tell all of you what a lucky guy I am.

The Enemy of My Enemy Still Needs a Good Thrashing
koze950.com If there is one thing that I have in common with Washington State football fans it is my understanding of what makes them mad. Nothing sets off a Cougar fan like The Color Purple. So let me tell you something indeed. It’s hard to write snarky things about a team that dislikes purple as much as I dislike purple. …

It’s Virginia Day for the Mighty Quack, as the Ducks take it on the road for a game about which they can’t be as cavalier as they were about Nicholls State University State College University, or whatever they are calling themselves now.

Reflections On Being The Same Age as the Speed Limit
Oh, I’m not as old as the really fun speed limit in Montana and Idaho. I’m not even as old as the open interstate limit in Oregon or Washington. But the calendar says that I have arrived at the I-5 speed limit through Eugene. How did this happen????? Aren’t K.C. and the Sunshine Band still cool????? Why did I get …
Rose Bowl Blog of a Crazed Duck Fan
January 2, 2012- 1;34 a.m: Decided on Rose Bowl attire. Going to go with white hoodie, with silver “O” and silver wings. I know we’re wearing dark, but the hoodie is undefeated this season. It did very well in taking down the Beavs. Maybe it will do the job today. 8:55 a.m: Shopping list: 2 boxes Milk Duds. Check. 2 …
